About HackSoc
HackSoc is the University of York's Computer Science society. We run a healthy mix of academic and social events:
- Talks on a range of topics from industry speakers, members and alumni
- Virtual Games and Cake, an online version of an old HackSoc tradition, on alternating Friday evenings
- Film Night, where we watch a film (or sometimes several) on alternating Friday evenings
- HackTogether, where we get together on Discord to discuss how our weeks have been (this is a great opportunity to get to know the members of HackSoc!)
Our events are open to non-members and to students studying any subject. Come along to anything that catches your eye!
